How to Get Reliable WiFi in Your Garden Building (Updated for 2025)

More and more people are transforming their garden buildings into the ultimate extra room – whether it’s a home office, gaming den, art studio or hobby room. Our premium range of garden rooms are designed to give you a warm, comfortable, year-round space away from the main house.

But here’s the big question: how do you get fast, reliable WiFi out there?

After all, a garden office without internet is just… well, a shed with nice furniture. Whether you’re on Zoom calls, streaming Netflix, or battling it out online, a solid internet connection is non-negotiable. Luckily, technology has come a long way since the days of fiddling with cheap WiFi boosters.

Here are the best options for 2025:

1. Mesh WiFi Systems (Best for most homes)

Forget the old single-router setup. A mesh WiFi system uses multiple nodes placed around your house (and sometimes in your garden room) to create one seamless network. No more dead zones, just strong WiFi everywhere.

• Great for medium-sized gardens

• Easy to install

• Perfect if you want a tidy, “set and forget” solution

2. 4G / 5G Routers (Perfect for remote garden rooms)

If your home WiFi struggles to reach the garden, a dedicated 4G or 5G router could be the answer. These work with a SIM card, just like your phone.

• Ideal for larger gardens or detached garden offices

• Speeds often rival (or even beat) home broadband in strong 5G areas

• No need to touch your existing home network

3. Ethernet Cable (The gold standard)

For the fastest, most reliable internet, you can’t beat an Ethernet cable run directly from your house to your garden room.

• Rock-solid stability (great for gamers and video calls)

• Once installed, you’ll never have to worry about lag or dropouts

• Best arranged when you’re already running power cables to your garden room

4. Powerline Adapters (Quick and budget-friendly)

If your garden office shares the same electrical circuit as your house, powerline networking can work wonders. These adaptor’s use your home’s wiring to carry internet into the garden.

• Affordable and easy to set up

• Great for light browsing, streaming and work

• Not ideal if your garden room is on a separate fusebox

5. Satellite Internet (For rural areas)

If you live in a rural spot where even 5G won’t reach, services like Starlink are a game-changer. A satellite dish on your garden room roof gives you high-speed broadband anywhere.

• Ideal for countryside homes

• More expensive, but highly effective

• Reliable even where normal broadband fails
